I'm so glad that I switched to Gunbreaker. I will never, ever, switch to any other job again outside of leveling alt jobs to 90 and leave them forever. Those "changes" and new abilities feel so natural to me. I'm actually in love.
The only thing that bothers me is – if Burst Strike is still 500 potency, why should we use Double Down when we can use two Burst Strikes + two Continuations instead? Yeah, you have to use two GCDs but the damage per Cartridge spend is higher than using Double Down…
"Heart of Conundrum" is quite a conundrum!
Gunknife goes even more brrr
Let's fucking gooooo
When they head the name of the new gunbreaker skill, did anyone think about KFC’s unholy abomination of a sandwich where they replaced the buns with chicken patties? Because that’s where my mind went. Time to work on my Colonel Sanders glam so I can start handing out Double Downs when early release hits.
Only negative I can think of is them going with "Double Down" instead of "Fire Cross"
Why not make another FF8 reference? Missed opportunity.
so pld and gnb are god tier and the drk and warrior were left in the dust
GNB enjoyer here, thanks for this video, short and straight to the point, loving the "changes" (feel more like GNB got refinement instead of changes). Look forward to your EW videos!
Thanks for your hardwork on the videos!
GNB seems even nicier. I think I will be training with GNB and PLD for this exp.
Can I get your thoughts on something MrHappy? I'm worried that the Gnashing Fang combo will no longer feel as good to execute because of its reduced importance in the GNB's dps.
Don't get me wrong, it's still good damage, but it's clear that a big part of potency being trimmed in GNB's case was specifically to allow for the massive 1200 potency of Double Down.
To use an exaggerated example, let's say that the Gnashing Fang combo only deals 20% more damage than your regular 1-2-3 combo. Even though nothing about it has changed mechanically, the same buttons no longer feel as fun to press because they make up a smaller portion of your power.
I know well have to wait and see, but is that a valid concern at all?
GNB Main here, and I love the 80-90 skills. I wish we got a gun weaponskill attack (on 6 charges at like 30-50 potency) but hopefully next expansion.
Might somebody be so kind as to tell me what coat that gunbreaker is wearing?
Please?
I must know!
thanks for the hard work!
I wonder if Conundrum heals a Superbolide use 🤔
I need Heart of Corundum now. Overall the changes look really good, can't wait to get my hands on them.
This honestly looks amazing! Just more of what makes GNB so cool. Will definitely be my tank of choice. Just can't wait in a few expansions from now when we have a full circle of cartridges.
It is actually pronounced "Heart of Corundum" not "Conundrum". Corundum is a type of stone/mineral.
You forgot to mention the increased duration of Superbolide and Holmgang (In your WAR video).
They still didn't fix level 70 balancing huh. We really need Ultimate Unreal (rescaled to current max level), badly.
You said we make gnashing one button to make room for our new 'skills'. There is ONE new skill that needs to be bound, lost two buttons gained one. I don't see what the point of that really was. I personally find dragoon way harder in terms of buttons than gnb right now(not that dragoon should be simplified) yet for some reason everyone loves this change. I'm lost. I get that the combo is hard in some content but if anything the hard part is double weaving, which you still have to do so this doesn't really make anything easier for anybody as far as I'm concerned (not that it should) it just seems like an over simplification to me.
this may actually change me to gunbreaker from warrior. the whole reason i was put off from gunbreaker to begin with was just button bloat
Does this mean GBs will now add another 1-2-3 to their opener. Effectively getting off 2 Burst w/hypers & Double Down followed by Cart Charge and 3 Burst w/hypers. That'll be interesting to try and fit into the No Mercy window
Does the Clarity of Corundum 15% dmg reduction mean that on the first 4 secodns of Heart of Conundrum, it would give a 30% shield?
If I didn't pre-determine that I am def returning to War for EW, I would certainly stay as a Gnb. But man… Those War changes… I just love them Way too much.
But the most important question about potential Gunbreaker changes…. does it still sound like you're swinging a wiffle bat?
The extra cartridge made me hopeful that the rotation won't feel so tight and specific as if currently does, but I'm wondering if the addition of Double Down just negates it. I'd think not just off the top of my head, but either way, looking like the best tank to me atm with the loss of Inner Release OGCD weaving. 🙁 Ganshing Fang combo has kind of just usurped Inner Release for me with it's QoL one button change.
